The Detroit Parks Coalition is expanding its We Walk Detroit program. The group will take one-hour walks multiple times a week starting in June at parks across the city. It’s part of a larger slate of free, all-ages programming focused on wellness and recreation.

The coalition is made up of several park organizations, including the Belle Isle Conservancy, Chandler Park Conservancy, Clark Park Coalition and Friends of Rouge Park. Some programming is aimed at providing safe, free activities for youth during the summer.

A new food pantry is coming to Detroit next month. The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services announced it is moving its On-the-Go pop-up food distribution center in Wayne County to its MDHHS office in Detroit to improve accessibility for residents.

The department hosts the food pantries in partnership with Forgotten Harvest. Residents will be able to schedule appointments. Culturally appropriate food options are offered when available, including halal and kosher foods.

For more information about dates and times the pop-ups will be open, visit forgottenharvest.org.

The general manager of the new Detroit Professional Women’s Hockey League team, Manon Rheaume, says she’s excited and focused ahead of the league’s draft next month.

“The draft class this year is going to be unbelievable. The number of players that’s going to be ready to play right away in the league is incredible,” she said.

Detroit is hosting the event June 17 at Little Caesars Arena.

Rheaume was the first woman to sign a professional hockey contract and play in an NHL game. She represented Canada on two gold medal-winning International Ice Hockey Federation World Championship teams and the silver medal-winning team at the 1998 Olympics. She performed the ceremonial puck drop at the PWHL’s first game at Little Caesars Arena in 2024.

Rheaume named Westland native Josh Sciba head coach. Sciba has been the assistant coach for the PWHL’s New York Sirens.
